1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A comparative evaluation of the NCCLS macrodilution method, the E-test, and the Sensititre YeastOne Colorimetric Antifungal Panel for the susceptibility testing of fluconazole, itraconazole, amphotericin B, and flucytosine was conducted with 233 blood isolates of Candida species collected between 1994 and 1998 in Sweden. Antifungal susceptibility profiles of Candida albicans and non-C. albicans Candida species remained essentially unchanged within the 5-year study period. The overall agreement rates for the E-test and the NCCLS MICs and for the YeastOne and the NCCLS MICs were > or =86 and > or =87%, respectively, within +/-1 dilution for fluconazole, amphotericin B, and flucytosine, and > or =66 and > or =57%, respectively, for itraconazole. The E-test and the YeastOne panels are equivalent, and both are convenient methods for routine use.
